The Ivy in Bath Wedding
K & M’s Wedding at The Roman Baths with a Celebration at The Ivy Bath
Some weddings just feel good from the very start. K & M’s day in Bath was exactly that. Relaxed, stylish, full of brilliant people and one unexpectedly life-changing side dish.
A Ceremony at The Roman Baths
Getting married at the Roman Baths is always special. There is something quietly powerful about standing in a place that has existed for nearly two thousand years and saying your vows. The golden stone, the flicker of torchlight, the steam rising from the water. It creates an atmosphere that feels both intimate and cinematic.
K & M looked incredible.They were the kind of couple who are just as fun to hang out with before the ceremony as they are in front of the camera.
After their ceremony, we wandered through Bath for a few portraits. The city always shows off and these two made it easy. Loads of laughs, loads of movement, nothing forced.
Drinks, Food and Dancing at The Ivy Bath
From there, the party moved to The Ivy Bath Brasserie for drinks, food, speeches and dancing.
If you are searching for a wedding reception at The Ivy in Bath, this is your sign. It was such a vibe.
Guests spilled out with cocktails in hand, the room buzzing before everyone had even sat down. The crowd brought great energy. Big laughs during the speeches. Proper cheers. The kind of group that is up for a dance floor before dessert has fully settled.
And then there was the broccoli.
I am lucky enough to be fed at most weddings. People are so hospitable and I’m very greatful. Now, I do not normally get this excited about vegetables. But The Ivy cooked broccoli, and put salt on it and it was memorable good. The best broccoli I have ever eaten. I found myself talking about it far more than is socially acceptable at a wedding. If you book The Ivy Bath for your wedding breakfast, order the broccoli. Trust me.

A Proper Party to Finish
Once the speeches wrapped up, the dance floor filled quickly and stayed that way. K & M were right in the middle of it all. No disappearing for long posed photo sessions. Just soaking it in with their people.
K & M, you were a joy to be around. Thank you for trusting me to capture it all. And thank you for introducing me to elite level broccoli.
